Starting and ending in Windhoek the capital city of Namibia where you get the chance to adapt and relax after your long flight. The trip then takes you inland to the Kalahari and the town of Gobabis. Just outside the town of Gobabis you will stay over at a lodge and have the opportunity to visit a real Bushman village. Meet the Bushman on their terms and with integrity and learn more about these fascinating people. From this point travel proceeds towards the well known Waterberg Plateau Park and Grootfontein for a short visit en-route to famous Etosha National Park. Here you can drive through the park and enjoy viewing many animals (incl. the big 5) and the vast open spaces of the Etosha pans.To end you visit you will travel from Etosha back to Windhoek where you will catch your flight back home.

What is icluded in our price and what may you expect for your money?

Accommodation: we generally use the small scale more personally run establishments like bed & breakfasts, guesthouses, small lodges, guest farms and some boutique hotels. We also have a limited selection of the smaller and better 5 star establishments but generally work with 3 to 4 star accommodations. Due to the low population, density and relative large size good accommodation in Namibia is limited. Except for the smaller more personally run establishments we also offer a number of larger accommodations. A rustic and tranquil setting or charming country style building with lots of character and welcoming staff enjoys our preference above large organisations. Rooms booked are as a rule always with an own private en-suite bathroom & toilet. For more information on what to expect from a typical LB Safaris accommodation. Click here

In any cost estimate or price indication, we will give you an itinerary based on place name or national park visited. This is because we are mostly working with small-scale accommodations and can only offer specific accommodations once we have finalised your itinerary and you are satisfied with our price indication. Once this is, done we will provisionally book all accommodations (and other services) then offer you a quote that will be valid for a limited time only. Any price estimate/price indication or quote is for free and without any obligation whatsoever. Finally yet importantly good value for your money is important.
